Muwatta Malik #1841
The Evil Eye
The Arabic includes the chain of narration (sanad) and the collector's commentary; the English translation shows the Prophet's words only.
وَحَدَّثَنِي عَنْ مَالِكٍ، عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ سَعِيدٍ، عَنْ سُلَيْمَانَ بْنِ يَسَارٍ، أَنَّ عُرْوَةَ بْنَ الزُّبَيْرِ، حَدَّثَهُ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم دَخَلَ بَيْتَ أُمِّ سَلَمَةَ زَوْجِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم وَفِي الْبَيْتِ صَبِيٌّ يَبْكِي فَذَكَرُوا لَهُ أَنَّ بِهِ الْعَيْنَ - قَالَ عُرْوَةُ - فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ
Yahya related to me from Malik from Yahya ibn Said from Sulayman
ibn Yasar that Urwa ibn az-Zubayr told him that the Messenger of
Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, entered the house of
Umm Salama, the wife of the Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him
peace. There was a child weeping in the house, and they told him that
it was from the evil eye. Urwa said, "The Messenger of Allah, may
Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, 'Why do you not find
someone to make an incantation to protect it from the evil eye?' "
